Edict #27 - Stardate 10071.8
“Can you heal the broken worlds within?”
Starbase 202 has fallen into such disrepair that someone from the command staff came to us and said “we should be fired.” I commend that person’s honesty. The situation there is so dire that the base was even considered for decommissioning. Would anyone but Larry even miss it? Unfortunately, I don’t think so, and honestly, it would be rather convenient to decommission it to make room for the Abramsverse ship.
However, it has always been my policy to give a ship at least one chance at redemption before decommissioning. With Starbase 202, we would be losing a unique environment which is deeply written into the history and culture of Fleet 4. We already had to let Crell go, and it would be in the Fleet’s best interest to try very hard to keep the 202 alive. With the proper leadership, I have no doubt that the 202 could excel and surpass its outpost rivals in posting quality and speed.
Upon the advice and recommendation from the Commander of Fleet 4, I hereby assign Captain Jim Hosick as Commanding Officer, Starbase 202. Jim is an experienced Captain who has already shown an ability to bring enthusiasm and life back to broken areas. The task before you here is a large one Jim, best of luck to you.
Jen (President)
